On April 10, the European Parliament adopted the revision of the regulation relating to construction products, which now allows several overseas territories, including Reunion, to implement a replacement solution for CE marking.
The importation of construction products from countries in their geographical environment will thus be facilitated.. Announced last July during the Interministerial Committee for Overseas Territories, this adaptation of community law to overseas specificities was strongly awaited by the economic and construction world. This exemption should notably make it possible to cope with the increase in freight prices and the supply of materials., thanks to an exceptional regime. The latter will be developed during the year 2024 and will make it possible to import construction products from third countries in their geographical area adapted to local characteristics., competitive and faster to deliver. South African products are particularly in the sights of Reunion construction professionals.
